Toyo poxies going good for now, holding up pretty good.

dunlop direzza is rubbish...switched to proxes 4 and never looked back

[Les Bain]

Kumho is good for standard, responsible daily driving, right?

[Allergic2BunnyEars]

Post allyuh tyre ratings instead of the brand. Brand makes no sense to post without context.

Proxy 4 is crap..had them on my passat and noisy as hell..tire wall to soft so cornering was aweful

Continental contisport 3 and Michelin pilot super sport are the best to use for summer tires

Pzero Nero in the front and some sheit in the back (westlake or something so)

[INHUMAN]

strange...my proxes t1r significantly reduced my tyre noise and inc handling from them chupid direzza/nexen n5000/. nankang ns2 was a good tyre i used as well

[rollingstock]

My Nexen Su4 are probably better than most of the tyres available locally. Brand has sheit to do with it, that's just for nuthuggers to feel better about themselves.

Tire ratings such as treadwear, temperature, traction?
Those aren't industry standards. Those are standard only to each manufacturer. A treadwear 180 Traction AA tire by one manufacturer can have less friction than a treadware 260 Traction A tire from another maker.

Typically, comparing the Treadwear Grades of tire lines within a single brand is somewhat helpful, while attempting to compare the grades between different brands is not as helpful.

It's still a way better place to be than buying a tyre based on brand name alone. Also Tirerack does comparisons between the tyres so you get an idea of how the ratings reflect the actual performance.

Q: Is "bess" a rating?

[acesinghit]

I am under the impression that the Dunlop's / Falken's (both part of the sumitomo group) we get are cheaper versions of the actual Sumitomo branded equivalent. Since they're cheaper than Sumitomo there has to be a reason why from a business perspective or is this all marketing bs? We had the Dunlop Direzza DZ102's in our previous car (215/45/17) and those performed exceedingly well. We just found they are a bit too noisy.

How may times some so easily take a thread focused on ACCIDENTS, and skew it to their own personal "likes".

Press on folks.

some here are speaking based on their experience. why not talk about an even more important factor like tire age? that's stamped on every tire

Yeah well that too. Still more important than brand name.
